Dunkirk, Md.According to the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office, a 43-year-old male from Washington, D.C., died in a crash involving a GMC Yukon on Monday afternoon.
Around 2:23 p.m., deputies arrived at the scene of the collision near MD Route 4 and Cedarwood Lane. The car, driven by Andrew Francis Evans II, was heading south on MD Route 4 close to Lyons Creek Road when it went off the road and collided with a speed limit sign, according to preliminary investigations.
